Zhu Fengshan, also known as Nanshan Spring and Fengshan Wonderland. Located in the southwest of Guojiazhuang, 5 kilometers south of Ganggou, close to the eastern new district, surrounded by mountains, isolated from the world, extraordinary and refined, dusty for thousands of years. It's a paradise hidden in the boudoir. Ancient dense forests, Millennium temples, gurgling springs, mysterious caves and ancient valleys ... are the perfect combination of nature and simplicity. Jungle, mountain flowers, flowing springs, dangerous cliffs, secret caves, valleys, Gu Teng, ancient trees, ancient roads, ancient temples and pagodas. This constitutes a beautiful picture.

Fengshan mountain gate

The mountain gate is majestic and simple. The whole mountain gate is an ancient city wall, and the gatehouse structure is made of huge stones. The gate wall is 9 meters high and 4 meters wide, and the arched door is 5.6 meters high, 4 meters wide and 4 meters deep. It is the only access to the mountain and an important gateway to Fengshan ancient village. From the east side of the mountain gate, along the steps, you can climb to the top of the inner wall of the mountain gate, and you can see the magnificent scenery in the south and the pastoral scenery in the north. Inside and outside the mountain gate, there are two huge stones engraved with flat forehead, the outer side is "Fengshan Wonderland" and the inner side is "Xanadu".

Passing by a restaurant built on a mountain, the name of the restaurant is "Wang You", which sounds refreshing.

The yard is full of flowers and plants, with five thatched huts on one side and a double-decker homestay on the other. Talking to an old man about the Xiangyi Temple on the mountain, he said, "What a pity, what a pity. It turns out that the temple on the mountain has a history of more than 1000 years. A few years ago, it was demolished and rebuilt, and it was left in half, making it like this. " What is it like? Let's keep climbing and find out.

Not far ahead, I came to the "northern tropical rain forest"-rattan forest.

In the dense forest, ancient vines are densely planted, which resembles the unique tropical rain forest ecological landscape in the south, which is extremely rare and amazing in the north of China. The metaphor of the expert image is "tropical rainforest landscape". Happy Valley, Taohuayu and Xianyuanyu of Mount Everest are all distributed in the depths.

There is no exact information about the founding date of Xiangyi Temple. Fortunately, according to the records on the stone tablet, Xiangyi Temple was built by Su, the prime minister of the Northern Qi Dynasty, during the Wuping period of the Northern Qi Dynasty (AD 570-576). Monk Daozhi of Changqing was the first abbot of Xiangyi Temple. He came here with three disciples in 570 AD. Since then, the incense of Xiangyi Temple has flourished, and it has gone through a history of more than 1000 years.

Xiangyi Temple has become broken walls, but the layout of the temple can still be seen clearly. Mountain gate 1 block, three halls attached to the east and west, five main halls, two meditation rooms next to the main hall, a theater 1 block in the southeast corner of the temple (with a bell tower 1 block next to it), and a stone pagoda 1 block with inscriptions of the Jin Dynasty embedded on it. There are two inscriptions, two stone carvings and three shovels, and the temple building is made of hard mountain brick and wood structure.

As the old man said just now, it has become the Xiangyi Temple in broken walls, which was demolished and rebuilt several years ago.

There are high steps in the middle. Above the steps, there is a tall hall. Gables and roofs have been built, the interior walls are painted white, and there is a platform in the center of the hall, which should be a place to worship bodhisattvas. There are no doors and windows in the hall, which is called semi-finished project. It's a pity to tear down this ancient temple. This is not surprising. Over the years, the old ones have been demolished, the new ones have been built and the big ones have been built.

There is a thousand-year-old maple tree in the southeast of the temple, with a trunk diameter of about 1.3 meters, which is thick and vigorous. Branches are like powerful, curved dragon claws, which run in all directions, so they are also called "dragon claws and five-pointed maple". It is said that this maple tree was planted in the Tang Dynasty. Its sturdiness and age are rare in the north, so it is honored as the "King of Maple".

It didn't take long for the words "Tongtianya Cliff" to be engraved on the cliff opposite, which seemed to be "Book in Quancheng".

Cangjindong

Located in the east of Liu Dong Shenquan, the entrance is rectangular and about two meters deep. According to legend, during the heyday of the Northern Qi Dynasty, there were hundreds of monks in Zhu Feng Temple, with more than 100 mu of land at the foot of the mountain and many monks. When the Buddha was destroyed in 954 in the Five Dynasties and Two Weeks, most monks were hunted down or fled to other places. The abbot secretly buried the treasure in a cave and told his disciples that from Liu Dongquan to the east, through Jiugou and Eight Villages, it was the place where the treasure was hidden. Thousands of years have passed. In the war of 1930s, a southern Feng Shui master discovered this secret, and it was excavated and stolen. Therefore, the locals call this cave "Treasure Cave" or "Taojin Cave".

Not far from the north of the temple, there is a tomb tower called Zijin Tower. The inscription in front of the tower records that the tower has a history of 1400 years. The tower is located on a natural cornerstone, with the gate facing south, and the three gold-plated characters "Zijin Tower" are written on the stone tablet. The tower is a stone structure with a square spire, and the eaves are stacked to the top in turn. The whole tower is simple and simple.

It is said that there is a story between this Zijin Tower and Su Dongpo. In the tenth year of Xining (A.D. 1077), Su Dongpo took his friends to visit Zhu Fengshan. He sat leisurely beside the Zijin Tower, sipping tea, but saw green mountains and green waters, and birds contended. This is really a fairyland on earth. Seeing that the Zijin Tower is simple and elegant and dignified, he wrote the word "Zijin Tower" on the eyebrow stone with pen and ink.

Unfortunately, the plaque inscribed by Su Dongpo was stolen in the 1930s, and now it is a sketch.
